They've been doing this in FL for years. Remember that guy Jesse, whose home was taken for the Everglades?

Not the same apparently. If the guy's house was taken for the Everglades then the land went to the everglades. Looks like in this case the land has nothing to do with the project at hand except it just happens to be handy. Why should this guy have his farm chopped up because some roadbuilder used land set aside for wetlands on a project miles away?

The Supreme Court has exposed every Americans property rights to the whim of whatever local jurisdiction they happen to be in for whatever hairbrained scheme they might cook up. One of the worst decisions in Supreme Court history.
